Family First Economy Second?

Alright family. Let's talk business or what passes for it in Washington these days. Heard the news – seems like some folks are losing faith in how things are being run. They say Trump's losing his grip. Well around here we know grip is everything. You lose your grip on the wheel you end up wrapped around a tree! It's all about family and loyalty. And right now folks are questioning the loyalty... to the economy that is.

Tesla's Engine Trouble: More Than Just a Speed Bump?

Now about this Tesla situation. Elon Musk that guy's always been a bit of a wildcard. But family knows family and we all know Tesla is a big piece of the automotive industry puzzle and it is an American made product. But let's be real numbers don't lie. They say their reputation is going down faster than Tej's hacking skills can crack a firewall. And with investors getting skeptical it is leaving me skeptical. In this family we stand by each other. So let's hope Musk gets his act together or else... well let's just say he might need a new driver.

Markets Talkin': Can Money Buy Happiness... or at Least Forgiveness?

But hold on a second. The markets they're a funny thing. Like a race they can turn on a dime. Good news comes out stocks jump higher than Letty on a NOS boost. Trump says he ain't firing some guy named Powell Musk promises to spend less time in D.C. and suddenly everyone's happy again. It's like they forgot about all the problems all the family fights. Money talks I guess. But remember family is more important than money.

Trump's Trade War Blues: China Calling?

Speaking of fights this trade war with China is getting messy. One minute they're going at it like me and Hobbs in a prison brawl the next they're talking about 'de escalation.' I've seen more consistent driving from Brian after ten Coronas. But hey if they can find some common ground maybe we can all avoid a global economic pile up. Remember in this family we try to avoid unnecessary drama.

Tesla's Numbers: Reality Check or Just a Pit Stop?

Okay so Tesla's earnings took a nosedive. Revenue down profits vanishing faster than a Supra at a street race. But the stock still goes up? What?! The streets don't forget and neither do investors. This is where it gets tricky. Is this just a temporary setback or is Tesla headed for a crash? Only time will tell. But I'll say this sometimes you gotta hit rock bottom to rebuild stronger than ever. And this family is always ready to rebuild.

Freight Train Wreck: Are the Ports Feeling the Pinch?

And now this… the ports are slowing down. Less stuff coming from China. This is bad news family. It means less work less money and more problems down the road. This trade war is starting to hit home. This is about more than just numbers; it's about people's livelihoods. This family protects its own. We need to find a way to get this back on track.
